The Hill reported that the chief executives of Facebook, Google and Twitter will testify before the U.S. House of Representatives at an Internet misinformation hearing
“For too long, major technology companies have failed to recognise the role they have played in inciting and spreading misinformation to their audiences. Industry self-regulation has failed”, – said Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Frank Pallone in a statement.
The hearing will be held in the Energy and Commerce Committee. Congress will consider issues related to the spread of misinformation about the coronavirus and the violence during the January riots outside the Capitol building.
